…yet there is madness in it.

Re: Halloween Jukebox

Halloween is coming up and I got the idea to put together a fun YouTube playlist that expressed the feeling of the holiday. Here are my picks:

This version of the “Monster Mash” done with Lego figures is both a nice rendition of this novelty hit and a tribute to Bobby “Boris” Pickett who did the song.

Take it from Ray Stevens: the dead can sit up by themselves.

You’ll probably need a stiff drink after that so take a swig of Love Potion No. 9. The manufacturer is not responsible for customers snogging police officers on 51st and Vine or the jail term that is likely to follow.

Speaking of jail terms, Johnny Cash sings the murder ballad “Delia’s Gone”. Johnny often picked songs that have a dark theme to them which is one of the reasons that I like his music.

Bringing us back to the lighter side, here’s Those Darn Accordions doing their rendition of “The Devil Went Down to Georgia”. If you’ve needed any convincing that accordions are the devil’s instrument, this video will remove all doubt.
